Description

The cfengine_stdlib hasn't been updated on Rudder since February (or older).
It contains some bundles with poor or defective implementation (especially set_config_values (which had to be rewritten in the promises)). An upgrade of the defective part (if not all) should be done ASAP

OK, I've downloaded and applied the latest version of the CFEngine stdlib.

I checked that:
  • All the extra body and bundles added in the new version are not in naming conflicts with our own body and bundles
    • There was one, which was copied from the new version of cfengine_stdlib.cf, so I removed it (from sudoParameters Technique)
  • No changes made in existing body and bundles should affect us

I validate this. It is much needed !

There was a separate commit here by Nicolas Charles to remove an incompatible body. However, that commit was only made on the 2.5 branch, not on 2.4, causing problems. I've just cherry-picked it to solve the problem.
